Revert https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/18849 Go back to our custom `LogContextScopeManager` after trying OpenTracing's `ContextVarsScopeManager`. Fix https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/issues/19004 ### Why revert? For reference, with the normal reactor, `ContextVarsScopeManager` worked just as good as our custom `LogContextScopeManager` as far as I can tell (and even better in some cases). But since Twisted appears to not fully support `ContextVar`'s, it doesn't work as expected in all cases. Compounding things, `ContextVarsScopeManager` was causing errors with the experimental `SYNAPSE_ASYNC_IO_REACTOR` option. Since we're not getting the full benefit that we originally desired, we might as well revert and figure out alternatives for extending the logcontext lifetimes to support the use case we were trying to unlock (c.f. https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/18804). See https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/issues/19004#issuecomment-3358052171 for more info. ### Does this require backporting and patch releases? No. Since `ContextVarsScopeManager` operates just as good with the normal reactor and was only causing actual errors with the experimental `SYNAPSE_ASYNC_IO_REACTOR` option, I don't think this requires us to backport and make patch releases at all. ### Maintain cross-links between main trace and background process work In order to maintain the functionality introduced in https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/18932 (cross-links between the background process trace and currently active trace), we also needed a small change. Previously, when we were using `ContextVarsScopeManager`, it tracked the tracing scope across the logcontext changes without issue. Now that we're using our own custom `LogContextScopeManager` again, we need to capture the active span from the logcontext before we reset to the sentinel context because of the `PreserveLoggingContext()` below. Added some tests to ensure we maintain the `run_as_background` tracing behavior regardless of the tracing scope manager we use.

Switch back to our own custom `LogContextScopeManager` instead of OpenTracing's `ContextVarsScopeManager` which was causing problems when using the experimental `SYNAPSE_ASYNC_IO_REACTOR` option with tracing enabled.
